“Battista begins with the company dressed in black before adding splashes of colour. A clever angle is played by having Carrie look as though her mother has dressed her as a “mini me,” complete with high-buttoned black dress, gold cross and severe hair bun. The students’ prom costumes are individualistic but not as polished as they might have been. Carrie’s ill-fated prom dress, however, is truly gorgeous.” – Simon Parris (Man In Chair)

“The charred school lockers that dominate Jacob Battista’s neat set design offers the audience a chilling premonition of the destruction to come while also echoing the narrative structure of the show” “The colour palette for the costume designs by Battista are all stark black with clever splashes of bright colour seeping in as the show progresses.” -Rueben Liversidge (ArtsHub)
